The aforementioned tree swing!

Someone did an amazing job putting it together with about a hundred quid's worth of rope and carabiners.

Thank you kind person on the #SpeysideWay!

Home again from a grand adventure: Walking the #SpeysideWay with my brother - it was spectacular to see Spring beginning to spring in the north of #scotland

We met lots of lovely people along the way, including a kind person who told us about a (surprisingly well made) tree swing in the woods - faith in humanity, and treeswing builders reaffirmed!

New 266km #bikepacking route around the #Cairngorms National Park, starting at #Aviemore railway station. It follows the Old Logging Way and then takes in the #SpeysideWay, The #CateranWay, The #DeesideTrail, Sustrans National Route 7, and a whole lot of incredible Scottish wilderness before finishing back in Aviemore again.

This looks a cracking weekend trip and I'm adding it to my wishlist! ♥️

These metal artworks in the woods always remind me of the lamp post in Narnia, which grew magically from a bit of old lamp post thrown on the ground. Maybe these have grown magically from bits of scrap metal blown from the recycling centre just across the railway.
